I think that Emmett was very welcoming, and like everyone else has already said, slightly intimidated by Jasper. When you think about how quickly Emmett and Bella bonded and Bella being slightly less bubbly than Alice, you have to imagine that Emmett and Alice bonded instantly. I can imagine it took a bit longer to warm up to Jasper, but not too long.

I dont know shannon.. we may have to be co presidents of the crazy club....

HAPPY NEW YEARS

AND story time: i was watching tv wating for ryan secrest to come on and there was this commercial with a giant pinyada.. now what does this have to do with EDC.... someone of yall came in with aWREAKING BALL~!! i was like ahhh its the edc taking over the world!!!

Hey!!! How is everyone? And Sky! Why would you say I'm crazy? *looks offended* I'm so not-...Well, I guess I am huh? Hello BB01, or just BB, hmm? I'm Meztli!!! Or Mez, either one. Welcome to the lex. You'll have fun here. And BHG finally, (after how many days?), I present, your 2x4 back *holds out crudely reconstructed 2x4* I went a little overboard with the glue And I saw a question! *does dance*How do you think Emmett felt when Jasper and Alice joined his family?Now as we know from Eclipse, when Jazz was explaining his past, that Edward and Emmett were not there when the duo appeared on the Cullen doorstep. But I would think that even though they hadn't reached the house, they would have smelled them. And go on high alert immediately. I mean, two unknown vampires are heading to the house, wouldn't you be a little tense? And of course Emmett's first impression of Jazz had to raise a few red flags, especially if Jazz were anywhere near Rose. I'm sure Rose and the rest of the family would assure him but really you couldn't know their motives. Carlisle would be someone to ask if they could be trusted and then I would suspect Edward would be the answer, as he could hear what they were really thinking and know their motives. I would say a sure nod from Edward would assure him but he'd been on alert for a few years.Also Happy National Hangover Day! *gets glares from random people* Er..I mean Happy New Year's Day!!! *looks around nervously*

My First Post Of 2009!!Happy New Year to my amazing fellow crew members!*I am so tired though, my friends and I spent last night (early morning) celebrating my friends 18th b-day and then of course I’ve been ringing in the new year…so I’m exhausted..I’m probably going to have to edit this entire post tomorrow because there is a good chance it will be pure gibberish*.

Exciting news…I have had Breaking Dawn lent out to a friend since August, just a reminder it came out in August *I've only read it once* and I finally got it back today!!! I was so thrilled

Welcome to new crew members!I’m Heather, Field Supervisor of EDC, Inc.

In Breaking Dawn, for basically the duration of Bella’s pregnancy, many (basically everyone other then Rose and Bella) predicted that Bella wouldn’t make it. Almost everyone’s view points are represented though, on why or why not the support Bella’s decision….everyone except Emmett’s. The only thing I recall on Emmett’s reasoning was that he was basically protecting Rose the entire time (she had a tendency to irritate some of the other characters). If Rose’s life hadn’t been in danger, though, I wonder how Emmett would have decided.Which side of the Bella/pregnancy argument do you think Emmett would have taken and what do you think his reasoning would have been?

Which side of the Bella/pregnancy argument do you think Emmett would have taken and what do you think his reasoning would have been?I think he would have taken the pro-pregnancy side because he knows that that is the side Rosalie was on. He knew having that baby around would make her happy, and to me that seems like his main goal in life. It's as simple as that.
